Mammoth Schools Music Residency
As part of our Song and Wind music in the schools outreach program, the Eastern Sierra Symphony is proud to present the Eastern Sierra Symphony Brass Quintet in residence with the music students of Mammoth schools, and their teacher, Mr. Hammers. The quintet will spend two full days this coming Thursday and Friday, March 7 and 8, teaching, performing and coaching with the students of Mammoth Elementary, Middle and High schools. The quintet’s visit will culminate with their participation as adjudicators and clinicians at the students’ Solo and Ensemble Festival. The members of the quintet come from a wide variety of backgrounds and experiences, which serves to inform their performances and their teaching. The members are Gabriella Sá, horn, Imani Duhe and Michael Armstrong, trumpets, Rebecca Buringrud, trombone, and India Anderson, tuba.
